This recipe is based on the tradition of one of the best BBQ capitals combined with the outstanding performance of iPinium Universal Pan as an indoor barbecue enabler!

Ingredients:
appox. 4 lbs of back pork ribs or spare ribs
dry rub (mix together 4 tsp paprika, 2 tsp kosher salt,2 tsp onion powder, 2 tsp ground pepper and 1 tsp cayenne),
1/4 cup mustard,
1/2 cup hickory smoke BBQ sauce combined with 1/2 water for basting
clover honey as needed.

Procedure: Preheat the oven to 250^F. Bring ribs to room temperature, wash and dry. Trim and remove the membrane if necessary then rub the mustard on both sides. Pat the dry rub all over and let stand for 30 minutes.
Place the ribs on the iPinium Universal Pan (see picture below) then put in the oven placing on the same rack a basting pan (a stainless saucer would do the job) with the basting mixture.
Baste the ribs every 1/2 h then turn them over after 2 h and keep basting until the bones come out and the ribs part away easily with the meat attached (approximately 2 h more for a total of 4 h); see picture below.
Sprinkle the meaty side with the honey and let the the ribs inside the oven for 3 to 4 minutes.

Ingredients: 3 cups all purpose flour plus extra as needed, 3 TBS olive oil, 1 package active dry yeast, 1 tsp sugar, 1 tsp salt and 1 cup of warm water (120 degrees F).

Alternatively you can combine in a large bowl, and mix well, 3 cups of flour the yeast the sugar and the salt. Add the water and 2 1/2 TBS of oil (use the remaining 1/2 TBS later). Work the flour mixture in the bowl for 1 to 2 minutes then turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Knead for 4 to 5 minutes to form a round smooth ball. Put the remaining oil in a clean bowl, put the dough inside and roll it over several times to coat it with the oil. Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and place it inside the oven that you have preheated to 150F turning the heat off when you put the bowl inside. Let it stay for 15 minutes or until the dough has doubled in size (see pictures below).
Take you dough outside the oven, knead it on a lightly floured surface for 2 to 3 minutes then cut it in 3 pieces, each should weight 8oz. You can use the dough right away as directed by your recipe and save the remaining two 8oz balls tightly wrapped in plastic wrap, in your freezer for up to one month.
Next time you want to use it, thaw the frozen dough to room temperature.
